mrhyde 0 Posted July 10, 2015 Hi, im new to the forum. So someone robbed my dads store last night, and I have the footage. But sadly my dads outside camera sucks pretty bad. But I tried clearing it up in After effects but the criminals face at the exact close frame is hit by a light so it is hard to see? Is there any other way to clear it up? can someone see if they can do it successfully, I can post a link to the video file. Here is my attempt using After Effects : I did a snapshot of a frame I chose in after effects : Original snapshot of a random frame: http://izaguir.re/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/criminal.png After the aftereffects: http://izaguir.re/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/criminal-after-effects.png Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomcctv 189 Posted July 10, 2015 There is nothing you can do with that image ...... Don't waste your time looking ...... Use the time to install a better system .... Your next robber might not be so polite Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Too many people install poor CCTV systems, or maintain them badly, and when they need them, they find out they are useless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrhyde 0 Posted July 11, 2015 Well then whats a good security system for a small store? I mean, I feel like telling my dad he should just buy a system with high reviews off amazon and pay someone to install it rather then get screwed by some company he has hired which I am sure charge him really unjustified high fees for this type of garbage quality. But then my worry is, that if he does it himself, and one camera goes bad who does he call to fix it? Like what other service do these company provide besides the initial install and fixing? What do you think is the best path ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SyconsciousAu 0 Posted July 11, 2015 What do you think is the best path ? A good DIY system will save you thousands of dollars. A bad one will waste time and money. If you have the know how, or are at least willing to acquire it, you can build a very professional system. There is also the issue of budget. What sort of cash does your old man have available?
